Three Things... I am kinda obsessed with right now

1) Maxi skirts and dresses:  They have all the comfort of yoga or sweatpants... but, you get to look like you actually put in a little effort to dress up.  Win... win!!  I am not kidding when I say I have seriously considered giving away every pair of pants I own and stocking my closet with these little gems!

2) Quinoa: If I didn't think the family would stage a complete coup and toss me out of the kitchen for good- we would eat this atleast 3 to 5 days a week.  I'll eat it made into some sort of salad, plain as a side instead of rice or potatoes, or as part of a prepared dish such as quinoa and black bean enchiladas. Love that I can make it up easily in the rice cooker.

3) 1) Game of Thrones: I never imagined I would get into this sort of tv show/book.  But here I am.  Well into the third book of the series.  I can't believe this season is already over.  It's soooo long until next spring!

  2. Okay, I have to admit . . . I've never worn (or tried on) a maxi skirt or dress . . . . awkward silence that I'm sure would follow as you would stare at me like I'm completely nuts . . . I really like how they look on other people but don't feel like I could pull them off, but I'm very tempted to try. Maybe after I'm off of my spending freeze (and by then maxi skirts/dresses will be way old news and there will be some other craze for me to gather my courage to try).

  5. I love, love, love maxi skirts + dresses. You're so right... they feel like sweatpants or comfy clothes. Love them! {stopped by from the Jack of All Trades link-up}

  6. I sooooo wish I could pull off the maxi skirt. I just haven't found one that looks good on me--they are too clingy for my curvy figure. I'm sure the right one is out there, though!

  7. Maxi skirts are comfort heaven - especially when I can find one that is short enough. And I made quinoa-black bean-avocado wraps last night because the husband was away and I knew he wouldn't approve of such a meatless meal! Hope you're having a great week.

  8. Bought my first maxi skirt recently, and I couldn't agree more - I would be willing to give up pants forever for these babies!
